An Olympic champ and national treasure tells the full story of her unlikely rise to greatnessKellie Harrington grew up in Dublin' s north inner city and was in danger of going down the wrong path in life before she discovered boxing. Her local boxing club was all-male and initially wouldn' t let her join, but she persisted. Her development into an elite boxer was confirmed with medals at the 2016 and 2018 world championships, and crowned with a gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Meanwhile, Kellie won the hearts of the Irish public through her sparkling personality. Working with Booker Prize-winning author Roddy Doyle, Kellie will tell the story of her sometimes troubled childhood, her unlikely rise to greatness, and her continuing commitment to living a normal life - which in her case has involved deciding to stay amateur as a boxer and keeping her job as part of the household/domestic staff team at a psychiatric hospital.
Kellie Harrington was born in 1989 and grew up in Dublin' s north inner city. She started boxing relatively late in her teens, at an otherwise all-male club, but quickly rose to greatness, winning gold at the 2018 world championships and at the Olympic Games in 2021. Roddy Doyle is the Booker Prize-winning author of many celebrated works of fiction, and co-authored Roy Keane' s bestselling The Second Half.
